 * We want a bridge and the wind blowing onto it not to be synchronous, i.e. out of timing. Perhaps the most famous commonly quoted example was the collapse of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge in 1940. However, modern wind engineers attribute that collapse to a different but related phenomenon, called self-excited flutter from the shedding of eddies or vortices.
